The number of female players in the gaming community is bigger than ever, especially when discussing MMO and MOBA games. Don’t let the outdated stereotype of the neckbeard basement dweller fool you – currently, 36% of fantasy MMO players are girls! These games are perfect for anyone who wants to socialize while gaming. This is also the reason why their popularity on streaming platforms remains evergreen.
League of Legends – being the kingpin of all MOBAs, serves as a daily dose to an ever-growing community of female streamers. While the player base of the game is still heavily male-centric, there is no shortage of talented and entertaining female players. The variety of which spans from non-competitive casual gamers to the challenger rank prodigies.
Tonnes of female streamers join and leave the League community every day. But some names have just implanted themselves with the roots of the game. These include prominent streamers like Ovilee May (famous League caster), YourPrincess (former Twitch Rivals team captain), and many other distinguished Twitch Icons.
Regardless of the abundance of entertaining female gamers out there, we have shortlisted the top 7 most popular female League of Legends streamers below:
